Visual Novels are amazing, is one of the best ways to tell a story. The House in Fata Morgana is a masterpiece.

This was hilarious and informative to someone who’s closest experience to a visual novel was DDLC+

I just finished The House of Fata Morgana the other day and despite being my first time playing a first visual novel the build up and especially the ending really pay off. Thanks for the recommendation on the stream.

Glad to see a new video. I have only play 1 VN Katawa Shoujo (I've also played Danganronpa, but imo it is more a graphic adventure than VN). I really loved it (Lilly best girl), so I was looking for some recommendations. I think I'm gonna try Steins Gate (I've already seen the Anime, but I think the vn might be more complete) and Fata Morgana. Thanks for the recommendations.

The golden age is definitely not behind us, but the thing is that western fans are only exposed to a small amount of visual novels and everybody wants to read what everyone else is reading, so they all end up reading the same 5 visual novels or so.

Nice. Evangaard uploaded again. I have been watching all of your past videos lately. Great KZfaqr!

7:14 im fucking crying that was amazing

11:05 THIS IS ABSOLUTELY THE ULTIMATE CHAD MOMENT RIGHT THERE! I ALWAYS HAVE A BIIIIIIG RESPECT FOR THAT KIND OF PEOPLE!

8:34 well said

I see House in Fata Morgana, I smash like

Im obsessed with your vids bro. Entertaining, informative content and funny too

Brilliant video

Oy! Hello felllow Scandi! Salutations from Sweden! I love Visual Novels myself and recently got a request to make a "where to start"-guide for AVNs and this did help me get a few pointers, especially on the misconceptions part. Thank you!

Really good video, I came for some Visual Novel recommendation but most of the video was a good explanation of what VN's are and I loved it

Just the video I needed. I've always wanted to dive deeper into VNs after playing the first Zero Escape game and the original Phoenix Wright trilogy, which are personal favourites of mine, but have always been so absolutely clueless on where to begin, especially when it comes to the variety that have fewer elements of traditional video games. This was a highly informative and entertaining video. Now if you'll excuse me, I really should play Steins;Gate.

The best part of being a VN fan is finding the best version to read

An other amazing VN I surprisingly didn't see here was" you and me and her " I'd recommend it to more veteran VN readers tho but it's still amazing

I just finished saya no uta. Dear god gen urobuchi is a madman. His writing can be edgy and obtuse at times but his endings always hit so hard. I got too many recs from your channel

2:54 Watching this while playing through the retranslated story modes for MBTL was surprising...

Excellent video man, I read…play…fate VN because I am a fan of the series and was quite an experience

Recommendations in Video Short Game like Beginner friendly - The Nonary games series Doki Doki literature club The Song of Saya Planetarium Long but highly recommended :- The house in Fata Morgana

Great video! Stumbled upon this video about two years after I played (and loved) my first VN, 999! I’m also playing Katawa Shoujo for the first time these days thanks to Gigguk’s latest video, and I’m loving it too (Hanako best girl)! Def curious to get into more in the future, but like you, I’ve always been apprehensive about the “dog in the kitchen” that you mentioned. That being said, thanks so much for making a beginner video for readers such as myself! Def curious to try out your other recommendations as well!

Planetarian also has an anime adaptation by David Production!! I never knew it was a visual novel to start!!

DDLC made me curious about visual novels. Totono made me love them. Looking forward to seeing what else is out there

when you put in raging loop i was fucking hyped. my favorite vn of all time. any similar recommendations you could help a bro out with? a vn that's not too linear and is just engaging. be it mystery, thriller, or psychological

The dog being over 18 joke was genius, well done this video was great!

Planetarian is great and the soundtrack although short is amazing as well.

it was hilarious and informative and I discovered this is really isn't my thing.

Great video as always my guy.. also the fate series is in my list of animes to watch, might have to reconsider now lol

I have started vn with DDLC and I've gotten in the mod Blue Skies mod later on which is more like a true romance story with still the subject of depression within it, have only done both Yuri's ending and currently doing Sayori's. I've also played a pretty unknown true vn : Tricolour Lovestory, it's a chinese vn taking place there and the voices are chinese. But basically you're alone without your parents on a business trip but your parents are bad cause they don't want let you choose your path for college and don't you to see your friends because they want to marry because of business if i remember. Sorry i'f i'm badly explaining, but finally the story is pretty much you take on painting course and try hard to success your exams to be free of your parents and you draw with the girl you choose and make closer bonds with her. That's pretty much the story. But i have done a long pause and not ended yet so not sure if this is high quality but this seems fine if you don't mind chinese voices. But overall what retains me from playing more vn is that it's taking much time, always related to romance, and since i'm not native english speaker, it's even longer to check some words you don't understand.

Lol a dude on Instagram recommended muv luv trilogy and I was like "yeah I need to start with something if I want to read more vn's" I didn't know the trilogy would take me over 100 hrs to complete, but man I'm so glad it was my first vn, even though I'd not recommend it to everyone.

Have you played all the Fata Morgana stuff including requiem for innocence, reincarnation, 7th lair, short stories (online ones too) and Erasmus?

Alright guys, easiest way to start reading Fate/Stay Night. Challenge rating: Impossible.

I'm new to the VN world and I've been a gamer my whole life. Recently I played and finished my 1st vn. DOKI DOKI LITERATURE CLUB PLUS. I was surprised I finished and was invested. I played my 2nd 7 DAYS OF ROSE. I found out this genre was part of my tasting. I just got a Steam Deck for the purpose of playing vn games. So I'm looking around here for vids and reviews. I'm currently playing steins gate

Is something like software where you can write script and script will go down by lines when i will be hitting space or some other key exist? I wanna record some visual novels, but in my language not in English and if i will prepare script like this and have him on second monitor it will be more enjoyable for audience (than for they will be waiting for i will translate). Most harder in this case is i think to app / software need to changes lines when i will be hitting some keys outside of software applitacation. IF someone know about something like this please share knowledge.

Good list

what was that 0 0 escape or what? I didn't hear it well on minute 2:22

There's been A LOT of great new VN coming out every year, i think the top list is heavily based on nostalgia biased tbh

Nice video

The Grisaia music in the background is killing me 😂😂

Rance for the win

Accurate

The same thing happened to my Steam Page after playing The Zero Escape Series. I actually caved and tried Being a Dik. And well..... Yeah I really liked it for reasons that no one will believe me lol

What a visual novel?

read full metal daemon muramasa everybody. that is all.

Am playin katawa shoujo

lmao bro,right now i've been in state of tired of modern gaming/competitive lol ( i play some ps1 games for passing time ) just tried to play my first vn games shibuya scramble, i never thought that am hooked lmao, even thou am not a fan of novels books

Can anybody tell me what the Visual Novel at 1:17 is Thank you in advance..

What's wrong with a VN having +18 content? How is the censored version the superior one?

Subahibi was a trauma for me

M

Anyone know what game the girl at 12:47 is from?

Im never gonna read something as good as fata morgana

Check out the visual novel we're working on :) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iNJ-grpyxLyzfaM.html

I must say I'm disappointed in Steam for leaving out so many VNs that aren't supported by Steam.

Katawa Shoujo is my favorite VN of all time. It treats people with disabilities wholly and fully as human as everyone else, who have wants and needs as well. Plus it’s not a “pity me” story. It wasn’t my first (that was 999), but it really stuck with me. Since then I’ve played every VN on this list with the exception of House of Fata Morgana. (Maybe that’s because I’m on an Otomate kick on the Switch right now, but still…) Great list and video!

Is the "golden age" of visual novels really over or is the western fandom just new and growing? With all the newbies being too busy reading the classics to check out the new hidden gems?

Brother why would you recommend Song of Saya to beginners LMFAO! That's like, oh never shot a gun before? Here try this .50 cal sniper rifle then 😂🤣

.

god save the queen

Where can I read

Saya no Uta is a really cute romance vn, about 5 hours of wholesome relationships

Not reading/watching fate is a massive L.

Im curious about what could be the plot of Futa fix dick dine and dash 👀

nice now where can i pirate it without getting viruses

as a female VN fan who play eroge,yaoi,yuri and otome there is atleast in the otome community part of it go more new ones localized though i think nekonyan got quite new ones as well to be honest and iv seen people reveiw,game play them as well currently im on koikari love fore hire i really dislike the twins though my fave emi,sumi and momko atm

7:50

Excellent video man, I read…play…fate VN because I am a fan of the series and was quite an experience
